It's that time of the month, the much-anticipated AMA with Artie! :3
Big thanks to Beary, Gorgilisk, Quintree, Evert and Regdeh for the questions this month!
I've got a NukiNews post on streaming too, less on the advice side but more on my mindset you could say: 2022-02-24 00:35:52 +0000 UTC

It is now we crest into the 11th issue of Smuushin Goodness!!!!! Somehow half of February is already gone; and next week I should be posting the AMA answers! But first I've got some smuushy WiPs to show you!
These big fellas are lookin to sate their appetite, thankfully there is a bounty of food before them(and likely off screen as well, haha...
This week I'd wanted to show off my new Ref Sheet for Artie, as well as an updated one I made for my boyfriend! I've also been working on a PNGTuber for my boyfriend
My last ref sheet was made during 2019; however as my style has refined even further, I kept looking back at with with a bit of disdain on how I executed on it; proportions and a...
As of writing I’ve actually hit day 254; and marking a full year of when I started playing Ring Fit! It’s not going to be a surprise that I wholeheartedly recommend you play Ring Fit, too, knowing I’ve played it 2 out of 3 days of a year on average! I have an interest in exercise games, or games that make exercise not a boring chore and game-ify it. The last time I’d been regularly putting any effort on exercising my body was...

The first questions of the year, horaay! Big thanks to Gorgilisk, Ever, Regdeh, and Beary Rookie for your questions this month! :3
Me, having goals??? It happens!! Hopefully by the end of the year I could write an entire Nukinews in Spanish and have a 100 page sketchbook you could theoretically buy on gumroad, who knows!

Big apologies, commissions and other things came up that I didn't have the AMA done in time for today. I am hoping to have them up and done tomorrow(Thursday the 27th) or the 28th if I am super bogged down, but that should be unlikely. <x)

It's the 10th batch of WIPs featuring some good smuushy times! :3
Soft tanuki cuddles between Artie and Onaka!<3
Benji gets some affection too, from Pepper the Charizard(whom you may recall from the previous issue of 'Smuushin Goodness'!)
If you go to Picarto.tv/ArtieNuki you'll see my Picarto page states I've been streaming since 2016; but that would be a lie! I've been doing it since 2013, at least as far as Picarto is concerned. Hell even earlier if I try to remember dormant memories of 'livestream dot com' haha.
But to answer the question in the title, I stream because I didn't want to be alone with my work. It's nice to have people around watchi...

We're starting the year off with me going over what I've been doing art-wise since I completed my December batch of commissions! And the answer is EVERY DAY IS LEG DAY. Kinda, haha.
Y'see, getting to work on commissions for a whole year has led to the nice thing that I can get pinpointed aggregate feedback on something I can improve on- in this case, it was pointed out to me I have trouble with legs and positioning them. Now, i...

In some ways it’s hard to believe 2021 is closing out; compared to last year, 2021 has been pretty quiet around my neck of the woods. Granted I’m glad for that; I needed some quiet to build myself up in my first year of full time arting! When I look back at all the art I’ve made, (almost 100 more pieces than last year’s post count) it’s hard to believe I did all that I have! It feels like so long ago I designed Fli...

Apologies, I don't have a NukiNews up today like normal. I happened to have scheduled my c0vid b00ster appointment right before Wednesday, and Ive pretty much been sore and in bed all day mostly.
Between that and working through my queue, though, Ive been a lil strapped for time, but Ill be trying to make it so next week I post my Ask Artie Anything Answers for yall<3
In the meantime, check out last week's post here...
You ever start something, and don’t finish it? I talked last month a bit about the things I didn’t get back to, but wanted to dedicate some time to go over all the things I didn’t get done(and won’t likely get done by the time the year ends). This isn’t to put myself down or anything! Just to look over what I started, and why I stopped. Maybe you’ll relate to the struggles behind them or realize it’s why you stopped som...

So, I’ve finished my NovemBEAR YCH, the first one I’d done explicitly for money! Technically there was a small YCH I did exclusively for Patreon during my 1 year anniversary- but this one was quite a bit involved. A full picture with 10 whole characters interacting in it! It’d been a few years(2019) since the last group pic I’d made!
Anyhow, you can find the finished piece over on Twitter:
Happy Thanksgiving to my fellow USA-ers! While I'm traveling a bit for thanksgiving I wanted to share some commissions I'm working on featuring tum-to-tum squishing~!
Heck I'll even show off the NovemBEAR group YCH too, which features smooshing as well. :)
Nothing like a cozy winter nap on the couch with big pals. x)

Picking up from last week’s NukiNews, I’ve decided to side-step repeating last month’s problem of over-working myself by combining both November and December’s commission queues! This is helpful because November and December have multi-day holidays basically toward the end of the months, and I’d rather give myself more room for maneuvering in completing comms, extending my turnaround time to before the 25th of December. Tha...

I gotta admit something- I bit off more than I can chew last month. Mostly with commissions- I ended up having 3 sequences(one with 4 parts), a full painting, and 6 sketch paintings, all with multiple characters. That’s 20 colored images, when I normally expect to take on 10-16! Even still, I somehow managed to complete them just a day before Halloween...also considering I took the ...

Happy birthday to me! It's the 8th edition of Smuushin Goodness! Where I give yall a sneak peak at my current commission batch! Usually containing some smooshy stuff. If bellies aren't touching, what's the point of art?? I could barely fit all this smoosh on the screen, hah!
And don't worry, I aim to get the Ask Artie Anything answers drawn and posted next Wednesday, the 27th! Anyway, on with the squishy sketches!

This week I’ve taken on another round of 10 commissions! By December I’ll have done this for a year- and while the year seems to have gone by quickly, there’s been a change in me from when I started doing art as my living and now- a change in feelings of anxiety in my life!
When I was starting, January this year especially, I was relying on the income I got from my art commissions for the first time. This brought about th...

I wager anyone reading this already knows how to go about befriending folks in the fur community, haha. But I don’t intend for this to be ‘preaching to the choir’ either! What I aim to do with this post is get a chance at writing out my thoughts I had on etiquette for adding people on DMs and such in furry spaces, because I aim to make a post about it on Twitter/FA to help folks who aren’t sure how to go about it!

Lately I’ve been noticing when it comes to games, I mostly just play them for 3 reasons;
1- Chilling out before bed or waiting for something
2- When I want something engaging to put my hands and mind to
3- Socializing!
The top 5 games I have on my Steam library sorted by recently played really exemplify this. I think I play my chill games the most. They are:

The Furry Community is filled with a lot of vibrant unique people with their own characters, interests, and styles! Individual creativity is rewarded greatly more than almost any other community I could think of.
There are a lot of ‘norms’ that are far less emphasized in the community too. Physical affection or sexuality, and appearance are treated less strictly, for instance, and when it comes to hiring furries to make you...
